Please don’t go! Why we love the British

The British voted to leave the European Union. Here are ten reasons why we don’t want to lose the UK.

We love the Royals.

Queen Elizabeth II is Britain’s longest reigning monarch. She has been Queen since 1952 and has come to symbolize continuity and stability, tradition and self-discipline. Walking two steps behind her is usually the love of her life, her husband Prince Philip. This year she turned 90 and he turned 95.

We love pop music from Britain.

The Rolling Stones: Mick Jagger, Charlie Watts, Keith Richards, and Ron Wood pose at Havana Airport in Cuba. The veteran British band performed there for the first time on March 24, 2016 – writing music history.

We love the British capital and its sights.

Tower Bridge in the center of London has been one of the city’s most famous landmarks since 1894. London is among Europe’s most popular travel destinations, drawing more than 30 million tourists each year.

We love the writers and protagonists of British books.

The adventures of the young wizard Harry Potter, as invented by J. K. Rowling, have found fans all over the world. This picture shows Harry Potter, played by Daniel Radcliffe, in his second year of training at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

We love the beautiful British models.

Naomi Campbell has been a key face in the international fashion business for almost three decades. Born in London, she was the first black model to be shown on the cover of French Vogue magazine. In the 1990s, she belonged to the supermodel generation.

We love British humor.

Few people can make us laugh like Rowan Atkinson, alias Mr. Bean, does. The Mr. Bean comedy series was produced from 1989 to 1995 and has a cult following.

We love Britain’s great gardens and parks.

Kew Gardens in southwestern London are one of the world’s oldest botanic gardens. The British are famous for their gardening skills and are regarded as experts in cultivating immaculate lawns. No other country in Europe has such lovely gardens

We love British style.

The focus is not on speed, but on elegance and class. The famous British understatement is also evident in Britain’s luxury cars, like the Rolls-Royce. The company was bought by the Germans, but it remains a British classic.

We love their somewhat strange taste.

There are certainly other European countries that are more famous for their cuisine. But if the British don’t leave us, we’ll never complain about their warm beer or lamb with mint sauce again. We promise!

We love their traditions.

The British taught us how enjoyable sightseeing can be. London’s double-decker buses are more than a means of transportation. They still characterize the appearance of the British metropolis on the Thames.
